"Bistro Barrique" in Obihiro is a popular restaurant that serves hearty bistro cuisine. Lunch, where you can choose your main dish and enjoy a luxurious appetizer platter, and dinner, which has a wide selection of a la carte dishes, are perfect for bistro lovers and special occasions. This is a restaurant where you can enjoy a variety of dishes carefully selected by the owner chef in a relaxed atmosphere.

Owner chef Takeshi Komatsu

The restaurant's name "Barrique" refers to the oak barrels used to age wine. The owner and chef, Komatsu, named the restaurant this because he wanted his customers to leave feeling full and satisfied, just like a barrel. This feeling is reflected in the food, and every dish is really filling. If you go for dinner with about four people, you can order a variety of dishes to share.

The stylish interior was renovated by the owner himself.

Owner chef Takeshi Komatsu is originally from Tokyo. He became interested in food and drink after working part-time at a restaurant, and at the age of 27 he worked at Le Bistro in Ebisu, Tokyo, where he met a restaurant and chef he respected, and decided to become a chef himself. With his experience working at Le Bistro as his base, he gradually built his own style of bistro by reading books and going to other restaurants. You can enjoy the casual bistro experience that is different from French course meals.

You can come for lunch or dinner without a reservation, but since there are only 10 seats and it is a one-man operation, we recommend making a reservation by phone or direct mail. You can enjoy the bistro in various situations, from lunch for one person to birthdays and anniversaries for couples and families.

There are two types of courses for lunch, with a choice of main course. One is "Lunch A" with a small appetizer for 1,800 yen. The other is "Lunch B" with a luxurious appetizer platter for 2,300 yen. The recommended course is "Lunch B" with all the appetizers, but since it is quite filling, "Lunch A" is recommended for those with small appetites.

The "Assorted Appetizers" menu item. The lunch appetizer platter is a half-sized set.

For the main course, you can choose from four dishes for lunch: "Roasted beef rump," "Poached sea bream," "Duck cabbage rolls," and "Tribe stewed in tomato sauce." Choosing between four dishes is a luxurious problem to have at lunchtime...!

"Beef cheeks stewed in wine" 2,500 yen. The mashed potatoes served with it were very smooth.

For dinner, if you make a reservation in advance the day before, you can order a course starting from 6,000 yen, but the basic style is to order what you like a la carte. The "Roasted Venison Balls" and "Roasted Beef Rump" dishes, which use Hokkaido's Ezo deer, are popular. All the dishes are plentiful and filling, surprising you with their appearance and deliciousness, making you happy. The "Beef Cheek Braised in Wine" is a dish that is so tender that the knife can easily cut through it, and is best enjoyed with a fragrant red wine.
